:dwillhuh:

So a woman isn't supposed to be independent

AND she isn't supposed to depend on her partner for financial support?


Riddle me this; what are you new aged "men" bringing to the table?

A utility to the gynocracy and these succubi

For most women, provider > attraction.

It's the opposite for men though which is why there are so many rich man/beautiful woman couples out there.

How many rich women do you see out here with male models? That alone proves that the genders are not the same and are not looking for the same things.

I think most women require a certain level of attraction and then out of the men that they are attracted to, they pick who they think would be the best provider.

But a lot of the times they come up snake eyes because that guy is just trying to hit and playing a role.

If they adjusted what they are attracted to initially, then they would have a better chance of the guy they choose actually sticking around.

There are some women who don't want to settle down because they overestimate their league, but it's not hard to find a woman who will settle down with you as long as you don't overestimate your league. Delusional people come in both genders.

I agree with you here. It's the delusion paradox that keeps so many people who could work together lonely.

A mans purpose is to discover, explore, dissect and command the secrets, the inner workings of the universe/reality both within and out and in all he does bring himself to a state wherein he achieves apotheosis eventually bending reality to his will.

We attempt to do this through science, philosophy, theology, spirituality, etc...

Anything else is a waste imo
The ignorant, base answer you are undoubtedly looking for is get p*ssy, make money.


Ironically the vehicles that were listed as mans way of finding purpose has revealed that he's only here for that........ to reproduce.

And obtaining adaquate resources or "getting money" is an effective means to that end

How sway?

Plenty of disciplines, philosophies, religions, etc...
Advocate absolute abstinence. Some straight up hate women and advise men to avoid them altogether.

Even the most well known of these, the Bible, oscillates between marriage and #GMB (The Apostle Paul).

Reproduction may be a constant in life, but that doesn't make it the purpose. Breathing is a constant, so is taking a shyt. Following this logic taking shyts is a mans purpose in life.

Make way, breh. Make your own way.

Men as a whole are dumb...

A lot of men still for some reason base their manliness or their masculinity on their ability to provide for a woman. And they'll intentionally seek out backwards ass women that want a man to do everything for them.

Yet these same men don't wanna feel taken advantage of...like a bytch...cause that's what it is essentially is...being someone's bytch...

So they'll be like...

"I need my woman to do what I say. Because I am the man of the house. She don't need to be blah blah blah..."

A lot of men don't understand, a woman getting her own money, having her own house, creating her own lifestyle...

IS EMANCIPATION FROM WOMEN.

In order to get love and sex and intimacy from a woman...you no longer have to give her money and a lifestyle that she desires...

It is an opportunity to live your life as you see fit without worrying about your masculinity because you don't got a kept bytch.

But they don't see it that way...cause they are stupid.


This.

Someone asked Keith Jarrett to describe his role while he was playing with miles Davis' band

And he didn't rightfully know
He said he didn't add anything musically..
So maybe he didn't have a role??
But they wanted to play together so they did

Likewise,, maybe I don't serve a purpose to my fiance
Yes,,I broaden her world some
But any semi-functioning boyfriend/husband would do that
Yes,, we share erotic intimacy..
But again, anyone can provide some form of that
Its not like I am opening up new worlds to her
She's already successful and accomplished
Its not like she gets to fly in a private Lear jet to eat at a 5 star Michelin restaurant
Or sit in on the next bildaberg meeting

I think we're together because we want to be..
Something about ur posts make my eyes burn unexpectantly. They get me everytime. They remind me of my grandmother and her easy wisdom. Thanks.

You'd be surprised. A lot of mothers tell their daughters that shyt.

"Keep some stashed away, girl."

They don't see that as selfish. But, let a man do that shyt. Oh, he's keeping money from his kids and the family. He's selfish.

Reminds me of this shyt. She saw nothing wrong with doing some side shady financial shyt.

Looks interesting... will watch

Aight pretty good thread, colicat
Another platinum production:blessed:

I tabulated the results, Ernst and Young audited my tally, and here are the findings..(excluding jokes, off topic, side arguments, vendettas, and chit chat)

What is the man's purpose in a relationship??
#1 answer was to avoid the question and instead discuss the woman's purpose:mjlol:

#2 most popular answer .. dikk :gurl:

#3 answer = whatever, no purpose, nothing

#4 explore the mysteries of the universe :leon:

#5 (tie) love, affection, companionship, cuddling, comparability, open jars, procreate , ying to her yang ..

So there we have it:shaq2:
Actually the replies were much higher caliber than previous versions of this same question :smugbiden:
We'll do it again in a few months:banderas:

Very accurate summation .... :salute:

Methinks this is a valid question with a potentially amazing answer. I keep telling people we're on the cusp of some of the most fulfilling relationships out of any generation that ever lived.

Why because we're poised to find mates that we genuinely desire instead of being with people out of necessity.
With that in mind, if my man and I make the same amount of money, share major decisions, and help one another take care of major duties and have mutual respect for one another, our purpose in each other's lives includes but is not limited to:

-Enjoying each other's company
-building together
-raising a family
-learning to live sustainably
-growing up together
-laughing with one another
-courting each other
-loving each other
-being the one to give you the :comeon: when u being dumb
-pranking each other
-helping each other improve
-fukking each other senseless and turning one another out
-Connecting spiritually with another
-travel
-watching our parents get old
-supporting each other

How did we come to see people only in terms of utility? What about genuinely enjoying somebody's company? Ever been so close with somebody that you can't wait to tell them about ur day? Or u think about plans and you anticipate their reaction?
It feels amazing. It's disheartening to hear so many people not being or feeling loved out here.

Biology books, For the majority of human history Males have sought out women who have good genes and would be of good stock to pass their seed on with. Females have sought out the strongest males or ones with the most resources. Marrying cause you like or love someone is relatively new.
